limb every mountain,
Search high and low,
Follow every byway,
Every path you know.
Climb every mountain,
Ford every stream,
Follow every rainbow
Till you find your dream!
A dream that will need
All the love you can give
Every day of your life
For as long as you live.
Climb every mountain,
Ford every stream,

Follow every rainbow

As each student arrives at Clark in the fall, he has in
mind a certain goal. For some that goal may be to make a
varsity athletic team; others hope to achieve a straight A
average; still others seek to act in a school play.

To reach his peak of success, each student must possess
high ideals, a willingness to work, and the courage to
face disappointments. The athletic hopeful may not make
the team; the dedicated scholar may not earn a straight A;
the would-be Thespian may never play a major role.

What ever the challenge may be, we face each with the
determination and zest typical of Clark teen-agers. Every
team, class, or activity to which we contribute adds to
our total goal. As 1963 draws to a close, we believe we
have at least attempted to climb every mountain that
Clark has presented to us.

and Library Provide Intellectual Stimulus

Knowledge is furthered in all facets of a Clark
student’s life. In academic courses, the conscientious
help of the teachers awakens the individual to the
wonders of knowledge. The library makes available
vast stores of human thought. There, resource ma¬
terial supplements assignments. Students gather in
the library during study periods and after school
to complete assignments or to find books for reports
or extra reading assignments.

Informally, the Clarkite acquires knowledge from
his companions. Throughout the entire day, students
rehash assignments. Open discussion promotes bet¬
ter understanding of the subjects. In activities stu¬
dents gain information from many different fields.

Total experiences of Clark life greatly aid the stu¬
dent in his search for knowledge.

Students also learn outside the school.

Friendships Widen Interests

Friendships compose an important part of each
Clarkite’s life. Some friendships are fleeting, while
others may last a lifetime. Some greatly enrich
a person, while others degrade. Whatever the
character of the friendship, it always adds to one’s
store of vast and varied experiences.

Activities nuture friendships. Meeting with
friends in an activity’s special location is an im¬
portant part of the school day. Fellow musicians
congregate in the bandroom. Aspiring journalists
gather in the Pioneer News room. The athletic-
minded assemble in the gym office. Debaters,
photographers, and senior class officers converge
on Mr. Erickson’s room. Even the teachers are able
to find relaxation by retiring to the teacher’s lounge.

Friendships begin with the faculty’s ex¬
ample.

and Nourish Expanded

Cooperation

When Clark students organize to defend an idea,
they strengthen their faith in reliance
on a friend. Friendship thrives on faith.

When it’s time to relax, thoughts turn to the topics of
the day. Both teachers and students congregate
to share in casual chatter.

Clarkites Find Teamwork a Snap

Students illustrate school spirit by dressing in blue
and white with booster buttons.

in Organizations

Sharing experiences is one of the greatest re¬
wards at Clark. Students work as an enthusiastic
group in basketball, Booster Club, debate, and plays.
The high caliber of these organizations reflects the
teamwork that made them strong. Wherever stu¬
dents are going, to the sectionals, Washington D. C.,
Springfield, or over to Condes’, they go together.
The group, filled with pride for its school, por¬
trays the spirit of the Clark tradition. Perhaps the
reason Clarkites work and relax as a group is that
they have many things in common. Everyone en¬
joys the “Twist,” “Jack the Ripper,” and the
“Horse.” Decorating houses is another fad that
keeps students busy. Messy lockers characterize
everyone’s busy school day. The epitome of high
school togetherness—going steady—is another ex¬
perience shared by Clark students.

Bob Vater shows Clarkites’ enthusiasm.

Pietrzak Center of Homecoming Clamour as

1962 Homecoming was the most elabroate cele¬
bration Clark had seen in years. The cheerleaders,
faculty, and student body prepared for weeks in
anticipation of the traditional pep assembly, game,
and dance. Enthusiasm soared at the pep assembly
Friday afternoon. The Seniors presented a clever
skit based on West Side Story. The Juniors proved
to be the noisiest class by winning the yell contest.
Finally, Jim Stasny, Booster Club President, drama¬
tically announced the 1962 Homecoming Queen and
her court: Cheryl Bazarko, freshman attendant;
Marge Wisniewski, sophomore attendant; Lorraine
Noworyta, junior attendant; Cheri Hoffman, sen¬
ior attendant; and Joyce Pietrzak, queen.

The band led the hour-long parade through Whit¬
ing and Robertsdale. The Spanish Club’s float and
the senior class’s car won the honors in the com¬
petition. The game against Hammond Tech was
dampened by a pouring rain and a Pioneer defeat.
A dance in the gym Saturday climaxed the moment¬
ous weekend for the Pioneers.

As tension rises among the entire student body before the announce¬
ment of the Homecoming queen and her court, it also rises among
the C-Club escorts grasping the roses, awaiting the big moment.

Mr. Daugherty inspires the team and cheering section
by filling them with the “desire and enthusiasm” to

Seniors Take Honors

Seniors are readying their car for the upcoming parade where
they proved fortunate by winning first place.

Queen Joyce Pietrzak gives up her cheering assignment
temporarily while she represents Clark as the 1962 Home¬
coming queen. Joyce smiles regally at her admiring subjects.

Spanish Club seizing second place last year returned this year
to take first with their float, “We’re No Fan of Tech’s.”

The Cheerleaders’ faces shine with pride during
the successful homecoming festivities.

Clark Improvements Add Comfort to Work

After thirty-two years of loyal service, these exhausted rem¬
nants are being replaced. Marred by scratches and etchings,
the desks are no longer useful to Clark’s new modern trend.

Scratch-proof, fire-proof, and student-proof desks have intro¬
duced the “new look” at Clark. The student can no longer
engrave their initials in these new formica top desks.

A.V.O. boys prepare our new microphone and
speaker system for an assembly program.

School bells ring. Children sing? It’s back to
old GRC again. But old GRC is tainted with a touch
of “new”. Forsaking nostalgia for progress, GRC
welcomed its 1963 facelifting.

A light of wisdom now falls upon students com¬
fortably seated in the most modern desk facilities.
So comfortable indeed, that now and then students
have been known to fall asleep in them. To further
the student’s home-away-from-home, vending ma¬
chines have been provided. Varying from beverage
dispensers to fresh-fruit dispensers, the student’s
health as well as pleasure is tended. The latest and
most efficient speaker systems have been added to
our vast audio-visual department.

Our instructors have not been neglected in 1963.
A recently completed teacher’s lounge replaces the
makeshift meeting places previously used.

With pride we hold our facelifted heads high.

An extra added attraction this year was the installation of vending machines. Freshman Liz Kmetz
rummages through her purse contemplating whether to buy a delicious pear while Sophomore Mary
Ann Poracky inserts a coin in the fruit machine to get her apple.

^/^Inotlxer role - for a time

Junior Class Play

“Motion study is fine as long as it’s somebody elses motions
you’re studying,” complains the Gilbreth’s housekeeper.

Fun and frolic invaded the GRC stage when the
Junior Class presented “Cheaper By the Dozen.” Six¬
teen players and a patient Miss Jeani Knapp, faculty
director, can truly boast a successful two-nighter.
Sixteen long days in preparation was enough to
make this warm story live again. Our junior thes-
pians proved to be just the rascals to fill the bill.

Efficiency was Dad Gilbreth’s creed— so efficient
that our own Lee Marcisz, portraying Dad, was the
first on stage for those nightly rehearsals. The
six sons and six daughters of the Gilbreths’, were
guinea pigs for the motion study experiments. If
occasionally the “dozen” proved unwilling, only an
experiment in laughter would result.

One such instance was the matter of the family
pet. From the moment the frisky collie set foot in
the house, you could hear Dad protesting, “Any pet
that doesn’t lay eggs is an extravagance that a man
with twelve children can ill afford.” The task of
leashing the lively collie inclined Virginia Sroka
and Karen Vasilko to agree with Dad.

Successfully surmounting all tasks, the final cur¬
tain fell and the last of the butterflies flew.

It’s a rug for a tub in this bathing demonstration.

Proves Theatrical and Financial Success

At fingernail inspection the children get a welcome surprise as Dad gives in. Each child receives a
gift, manicure sets for the girls and jackknives for the boys.

Anne (Janet Macocha) hesitantly displays the pettis and silk
stockings she bought, and argues about changing from old
childish black stockings to the latest fashion, silk hose.

Mr. and Mrs. Gilbreth check a new chart devised by Mr.
Gilbreth for the elimination of wasted time. Mr. Gilbreth,
an expert timesaver, manages everything with proficiency.

Auditorium Sparkles with First Musical Merits

“It’s never too late!” contends Lord Brockhurst (Ken Miller).

May, 1962 marked the most resounding dramatic
success in the school’s history. The Boy Friend
was the first full-scale musical comedy to be pro¬
duced on the Clark stage. The directors, Miss
Jeani Knapp and Miss Thelma Wilcox, overcame
seemingly unsurmountable problems—teaching 6’ 7”
Jerry Bercik to tap dance, training altos to sing
soprano solos, getting A. J. Saliga to do the Charles¬
ton, and talking Ken Miller into wearing a striped,
1920’s bathing suit. But in two months, the cast
was dancing and singing through three acts with
fourteen musical numbers—and loving every minute
of the experience. The Friday night performance
received the first standing ovation in Clark’s history.

The Boy Friend is a spoof of the 1920’s. It por¬
trays the razzle-dazzle of the era down to the last
“vo-de-o-do.” The stereotyped plot concerns the
girls at a finishing school at the French Riviera
who are tracking down boy friends. A hackneyed
ending resolves everyone’s love affairs to the tune
of “I Could Be Happy With You.”

Just as a boy friend was “sine qua non” to the
flappers so was the pit orchestra to the total effect
of the show. Under the supervision of Mr. Snider,
this group reproduced the two-beat, saxophone-
heavy, cymbal-crashing music of the 1920’s.

Polly (Barbara Hered) sings to Tony (Jerry Bercik) “I
Could Be Happy With You”, as they dance on the beach.

Wide Acclaim

“Don’t worry!” Percival Brown (Ed Jacobsberg)
consoles Polly (Barbara Hered). “He will come
back again.”

“Come on baby, let’s show them that old vo-de-o-do!”
says Bobby Van Husen (A. J. Saliga) to his flapper
girl friend, Maisie (Linda Field).

Assemblies Improve as

The school year 1962-63 marked a change in the
assembly system. Because of increased enrollment,
assemblies were divided into two shifts.

Assemblies were financed by the Student Coun¬
cil’s magazine drive. The Council held its own
assembly to encourage sales to earn the money.

A panel of representatives from four classes
presented an assembly on the Community Chest.
After touring Hammond charities, the students took
part in a “Truth or Consequences” program hosted
by Clark’s own Mark Moynihan. The panel mem¬
bers were asked serious and stunt questions. Wrong
answers to questions found Tom Allison and Barb
Hered twisting and Tom Snider singing.

Students were enlightened in the facts of the
March of Dimes peanut drive in a Talent Scout
assembly. Other assemblies throughout the year
were presented by the Vocal Music department.

One of many assemblies for 1962-63 was the Earlham College
Choir which spellbound the students during the hour program.

Participants Harmonize Facts and Comedy

A Bell Telephone representative is about to turn these four Clarkites into a human tele¬
phone line. This assembly informed the students on Telestar and how it is and will be used.

Senior Bobby Priesol demonstrates his musical ability by
“playing the water.” The music from this new instrument
was heard during the Community Chest assembly.

Arthur Condo Godfrey rises as he introduces his next guest,
Moishe Kokot Pepic, in the Community Chest Assembly. A
wide variety of talent was presented at the assembly in
order to inspire students’ enthusiasm.

This year Clark High organized the first card section in Sectional history. Here, are Miss Knapp and Mr. Mybeck shout¬
ing orders to the section as it forms a huge blue G.R.C. This section helped Clark win the Sportsmanship trophy.

Pep assemblies boosted the spirit of the students
before many of the important basketball and foot¬
ball games. The pep band playing jazz tunes, the
students filing into the gym, the cheerleaders lead¬
ing cheers, and the singing of “Go You Pioneers”
were commonplace at every pep session.

Before the Homecoming football game against
Tech, Mr. Daugherty, a Clark graduate, gave a
rousing address. The seniors presented their take¬
off on West Side Story. Songs included “The Clark
Song” and “Sargeant Halupke.”

Basketball coach Steve Stavros addressed the
students before the fierce Clark-Whiting basketball
duel. Jim Stasny, Booster Club president, added a
few comments on school spirit in anticipation of the
cross-town rivalry.

The assembly before the all-important Sectional
Basketball Tournament was started by Mr. Lockey,
who encouraged the whole student body to back the
team. The cheering section, which was unique in its
use of cards, took his advice and solidly presented
a demonstration of school spirit and were awarded
Sectional Sportsmanship Trophy.

“Coach” McCampbell shudders from the applause as she
prepares to talk to her “team” at a pep assembly.

Dances Mark Victory

Junior Mike Maruszczak was one member of this combo
which provided the music for one of the school dances.

Seniors reminisced at the Senior Class dance,
“Memories are Made of This . . Several posters,
containing the major activities sponsored by the
Class of ’63, decorated the back wall of the big
gym. Cartoons of the Ideal Seniors adorned the
walls of the little gym, where refreshments were
served. Barbara Hered and A1 Lewandowski were
chosen senior Queen and King.

The Junior Class earned money for the Junior
Prom by presenting “Shangri-La.” They created
“a little bit of paradise” in the big gym with the
oriental atmosphere and a striking pagoda.

Homecoming would not have been complete with¬
out a dance Saturday following the game. Home¬
coming Queen, Joyce Pietrzak, presided over the
frolic. Hordes of alums gathered with the student
body to help in the elaborate celebration.

G.A.C. used a bit of sectional spirit at their
pre-lenten dance. The Freshman and Sophomore
classes added to this list of dances.

Shoeless Nancy Bragiel and her date Leo Ruzycki enjoy a
good fast dance at this school affair.

Two of Clark’s most active teachers, Miss Myers and Mr.
Mybeck, try their hand at a few whirls at a school dance.

Elegance and true beauty describe the 1963 Prom as the couples are led in the Grand March by Junior class vice-president
Cliff Liehe and president Bob Ference and their dates. The orchestra plays on as they parade around St. John’s Panel Room.

Versatile Class of 1963 Stages Prom then

The big night arrived. Proud Juniors and eager
Seniors hastily hurried to their pre-Prom parties.
The Juniors were proud of their Prom arrange¬
ments; the Seniors were eager—eager to enjoy
the Prom. “In the Still of The Night”, amid a silver
and blue theme, dates, friends, and honored guests
descended upon the Panel Room. A fine Junior Prom
committee arranged for the hall, proposed the
theme and exquisite decorations, and employed the
melodies of Mr. Michael Golden and Orchestra.

This gala formal event of the year climaxed the
Seniors’ high school social calendar. As is tradition,
the Juniors bore the brunt of the expenses for
their big brothers, the Seniors.

As the magic hour of midnight neared, the fren¬
zied anticipation of the Grand March materialized.
The climaxical symbol of proms, the Grand March
signaled the exodus of “high-steppers” to the night
lights of Chicago and local areas.

Enjoyment abounded and with no regrets, weary
night owls made their way to the sandy beaches for
a Saturday of relaxation and more FUN.

The decorations for the Junior Prom, “In the Still of the
Night” are displayed by Dan Pramuk and Carol Tkach. The
decorations are the results of one month’s labor.

The plaudits and honors, trophies and awards
from oratorical and musical, athletic and scholastic
competitions have been presented and received. A
sigh of relief, and well rewarded by but weary
Seniors pause a moment and reflect on their final
fling at fun as young men and women, as Clarkites,
but most of all as seniors.

The class of 1963 has been notorious for its liberal
light-heartedness, but recognized for its boundless
potential and lauded for its achievements. It has
its brains and brawn, and odds and ends, but also
a rare form of individuality. This individuality is
the classes’ greatest achievement.

Our seniors have fortified those extras that are
part of every graduating class. Of course a certain
amount of protocol was retained, the traditional
senior banquet and graduation announcements. The
class song compliments the collegiate features of
graduation. Even without the extras, our seniors
remain as graduated as ever.

.. . Turns Class Rings

Michelle Kampo writes out the order for the name-cards
Bill Kussy has chosen. Part of the profit from the name-
cards is donated to the Senior Class.

Senior Pat Schrage measures Ron Burk’s head, arms,
shoulders, and height to insure a perfect fit in his gradua¬
tion cap and gown to be worn June 13.

Studying in the library or at home, typing up
a theme or a term paper, taking a quiz or a final
exam . . . whichever it may be, one can be assured
someone at Clark is doing it. At the conclusion
of each school day every Clarkite has learned
a little more. Whether it was as small as one
vocabulary word in Spanish or more complex as
a physics problem, he now has gone that much
further in reaching his academic goal.

ACADEMICS

Liehe Named Valedictorian and Recipient

Cliff Liehe received the Bausch and Lomb Sci¬
ence Award for maintaining the highest grade aver¬
age in high school science courses. Cliff was eligible
to compete for a scholarship to the University of
Rochester in New York.

The recipient of the Daughters of the American
Revolution Award was Barbara Hered. After being
selected by the seniors and the faculty, Barbara took
a three-hour test on citizenship and government.

Eight senior boys were selected to attend meet¬
ings of the Hammond Rotary Club. The Junior
Rotarians, as the boys were called, were chosen on
the basis of their grades and participation in activ¬
ities. Each boy attended the weekly meetings for
a month. Meeting community leaders and hearing
discussions on current problems served to widen the
boys’ interests. Junior Rotarians then contributed
the acquired knowledge to the whole school.

JUNIOR ROTARIANS—BOTTOM ROW: C. Liehe, M. Levin;
SECOND ROW: M. Trombley, B. Ference; THIRD ROW:
L. King, G. Gardner; FOURTH ROW: R. Burk, T. Allison.

Cliff Liehe was the recipient of the Bausch-Lomb Award for
1963 for his academic achievement in the science field.

Clark’s Daughters of the American Revolution Award was
received by senior Barbara Hered.

of Bausch-Lomb Award

Clifford Liehe, with a near perfect high school
academic record, captured the Valedictorian honors
in his class, and Barbara Hered captured the Salu-
tatorian honor. Gary Gardner and Tom Allison
ranked number three and four, respectively.

Gary Gardner rose from the ranks of the senior
class, and became a National Merit Scholarship
finalist. Thousands of students across the country
competed for this high honor.

The outstanding homemaker of 1962-63 was sen¬
ior Pat Mores, who received the Betty Crocker
Homemaker Award for her outstanding perform¬
ance on a test taken in December.

The Elizabeth Lyle Memorial Award was won by
Junior Tom Snider. Awarded each year to the out¬
standing biology student, this award is in memory
of one of Clark’s past biology teachers.

Ranking two and one academically for the class of
’63 are Barbara Hered and Cliff Liehe, respectively.

LEFT—Junior Tom Snider was presented the Elizabeth
Lyle Memorial Award for his outstanding work and interest
in the field of biology. MIDDLE—Senior Gary Gardner
ranked as the only finalist from Clark in the National Merit
Scholarship competition this year. RIGHT—Senior Pat Mores

was chosen as the Bettv Crocker Future Homemaker of the
Year. Pat won this title by making the highest score of
all the girls at Clark who took a special test on home
economics.

Science Courses Play Important Part in

Freshmen Sandra Hanusan, Joan Norrington, and Carol Bellile watch their fellow biologist Lynn Dostatni take her
chances with a stuffed baby alligator. By the end of the year the girls found this was far from hardest projects.

The science courses at Clark provide a vital
store of knowledge. Health, biology, physics, and
chemistry explore the aspects of the physical world
and its phenomenon. Man, the world’s most curious
phenomenon, is analyzed in Health I. This one-
semester course describes man’s physiology accord¬
ing to his nine body systems. Films illustrate and
supplement the chapters in the text.

Biology students realize that every living thing
has certain distinctive characteristics. Learning
these characteristics is a year-long project involving
microscopes, leaf collections, and dissections. By
studying and researching their topic the students
are assured they will benefit.

Physics is the fundamental science because it in¬
volves matter and energy—'two basic things in
everyday life. Through experiments and demon¬
strations, students can see the subject’s usefulness.

Chemistry deals with the materials of which the
earth is made. Students learn the properties, uses,
and discoveries of the various elements.

George, the anemic demonstration skeleton, is carefully
examined by Cecelia Brizina and Fred Morganthaler in one
of Mr. Daugherty’s health classes.

Curriculum of Students

Physics students Buzz Madsen, Ron Leckrone, Wally Steliga,
and Wayne Michalak get charged up with an induction coil.

Senior, Marc Levin and other industrious chemistry students
diligently study in preparation for classroom discussion.
During lab period, Marc carefully adds an unknown sub¬
stance to C 2 H r ‘(C 1, H 33 C0 2 ) :i to see what happens. Evidently

William Jorkon and Dennis Hornsby conduct one of the many
physics experiments given throughout the year. This par¬
ticular demonstration concerns tne Laws of Pressure.

nothing drastic occurred, for Marc was still alive to discuss
the experiment later with fellow would-be scientist Dan
Pramuk.

Beginning Algebra to

Juniors Jim Antilla and Bob Kukta use a “giant size” slide rule to solve a difficult
cube root problem in Mr. Watkins’ advanced algebra class.

Solid Geometry Pursued in Math Courses

The student who is ambitious enough to pursue
college preparatory mathematics for four years
gains a wide scope of knowledge. The curriculum
in Clark’s math departments consists of beginning
and advanced algebra, solid geometry, analytical
geometry, and trigonometry.

Freshman algebra introduces the theory of equa¬
tions. Advanced algebra surveys the complete num¬
ber system. Juniors learn to work with imaginary
as well as real numbers. The slide rule, permuta¬
tions, and probability are essential parts of the
curriculum, as it is taught at Clark.

In plane geometry, sophomores construct geomet¬
ric figures with compasses and straightedges. The
Pythagorean Theorem serves as the basis for solv¬
ing similar and congruent triangles. The geometry
course touches on loci of points, a difficult topic
usually left for analytical geometry.

A special math course for seniors covers trig¬
onometry, solid geometry and analytical geometry.
This fourth-year course climaxes the math curri¬
culum with a study of Mollweide’s Theorem.

Inquisitive, wondering eyes turn as a difficult problem is
explained in one of Miss Booth’s geometry classes. Demon¬
strating at the board, an essential part of classwork in
geometry, is capably done by Nancy Cervone.

Ideas Expressed through Writing, Reading,

Jack Brodowski, David Winner, and Jack Greenberg listen
as Ward Weinberg debates the proposition of a Common
Market for the Western Hemisphere.

Communication is the manner in which man
makes his ideas known to others. To get along in
the modern world, one must be able to express
himself accurately and concisely. Literature, com¬
position, speech, and debate classes enable students
to develop communication skills.

In literature and composition classes pupils learn
how to set their ideas on paper. They study the
writing of great writers and study the points which
contribute to good writing.

Speech students learn the basic principles of
oration. They also study Parliamentary Procedure
and debate technique.

Debaters, under Mr. Erickson’s guidance explor¬
ed the area of free trade and built arguments on
both sides of the question. Debaters acquired speak¬
ing prowess and the ability to think clearly.

Ron Novak delivers his rebuttal as his colleague, Janet
Norrington collects additional information and quotes. De¬
bating in speech class helps the students in speech delivery.

and Speaking

Miss McCampbell discusses the adventures of early American Miss Carol Krupa, teacher of remedial reading,
folk heroes with Sharon Labus and Leonard Marcisz. discusses some passages with Dorothy Priesol.

Diligent sophomore students in Mr. Meadow’s English class develop a basis for their
future themes through clear, concise sentence structure. In later weeks they will
concentrate their efforts toward a major task—that of a research paper.

Keeping pace with the growing need for adept¬
ness in foreign communication, the Clark language
arts department has made repeated progress these
past several years.

Supplementing the foreign languages of Latin,
German, and Spanish is an elementary French
course. This conversational language, as well as
German and Spanish has created an influx of enter¬
prising students enrolling in the language arts.
The Latin language still remains the most popular.
These young Romans resounding their “amo, amore,
amove”, complete the enrollment of 270 in the
language department.

Such precedented interest in foreign language
warrants some necessity in teaching techniques and
facilities. Clark’s long awaited language laboratory
will debut in 1963-64. The realization of the lab
will coincide with the predicted foreign language
enrollment peak of 1963. This supplement to langu¬
age instruction augments a vast repertoire of prec¬
edented study aids. The graphic audio visual ser¬
vices in conjunction with active participation in
the revived aspects of the language through sem¬
inars, lectures, and clubs proves to be the ultimate
concept in modern language instruction.

Latin students Mary Wescott and Jack Greenberg present
a puppet show for a special project.

Grasps Student Interest

Providing a break in the strenuous routine of Latin class
is a friendly Latin game of Scrabble.

TOP—Students of Latin combine fun with learning by trans¬
lating a crossword puzzle into Latin. This increases their
knowledge of the practical application of Latin words and
phrases. MIDDLE—Susan Greenberg points out Berlin, the
center of the development of German culture to her fellow-
classmates. Studying the background of the language is also
a part of a language class. BOTTOM—Spanish students read
over daily translations of stories in class to become fluent
in their chosen “second language”.

Social Sciences Stress Taxes and Cuba

The social studies department pursues its cur¬
riculum by inductive reasoning. In Geography I
and II, freshmen receive a general impression of
the earth’s characteristics. Knowledge of climates,
topography, and natural resources forms a basis for
further study in the social sciences.

Sophomores learn about the progress of man from
the Stone Age to the present. World history scans
the story of man’s adaptation to the earth.

United States history relates man’s progress in
America. Political, social, economic, and religious
trends from the colonization period to the founda¬
tion of the United Nations are studied in detail.

Government offers seniors explanations of the
theories behind democracy, socialism, and capital¬
ism. Students learn why man in his particular en¬
vironment formed a certain governmental system.

With the study of economics, the science of social
studies, the department completes its journey from
the general to the specific. As the students progress
they delve deeper into specific areas of study. By
their last two years, students can form personal
conclusions about man’s relation to the world.

Mr. Mybeck explains the development of the United States
to history student, Bonnie Spanier.

Mr. Charlet makes use of an opaque projector as an aid in
the teaching of United States history to one of his classes.

Cliff Liehe and Jim Stasny concentrate on an educational
television program during one of their economics classes.

Challenge Old Ideas

Seven Teachers Give Clark the Business;

In preparing themselves for the future. Seniors apply themselves in Miss Coughlan’s
advanced bookkeeping. Joe Nanista takes advantage of the adding machine, while
others use worksheets.

Joyce Pietrzak and Sharon Gootee use an adding machine
to complete their assignment in business machines class.

At one time or another, students at Clark venture
into a commercial subject. Typing is the most popu¬
lar, and practical for use in other subjects. Short¬
hand, advanced typing, and transcription unite to
form a firm stenographical career.

For those who wish insight with the legal aspects
of business, a business law course might prove inter¬
esting. On everyday situations, consumer problems
gives ideas on how to interpret and benefit from
them. Consumer’s education explains how to trans¬
late advertising claims along with the selection of
goods and budgeting of the income.

Business machines enlightens one in the use of
machines through practical experience. Bookkeep¬
ing prepares students for further study in the field
of accounting. Finally, general business offers the
student a glimpse of now business affects his life.

Influence Many Lives

Shorthand tests the skill and ability of attentive, speed¬
conscious advanced students. Miss Coughlan gives rapid dic¬
tation to increase the proficiency of the shorthand students.

Speed and accuracy are the main objectives in advanced
typing. Warm-up drills help accomplish this goal.

Bill Kussy explains a problem to his classmates in consumer
problems class. In this class students familiarize themselves
with problems which will face them in their future lives.

In a completely modernized kitchen, which Clark received this year, future home¬
makers Karen Vasilko and Nancy Wosczcynski follow a recipe closely.

Creative Thought Varies the Fine Arts

Sandy Fauth, Liz Oxford, Bob Seth, and Virginia Taylor dis¬
cuss techniques in Miss Morrison’s advanced art class.

The re-modeled cooking room offered an ex¬
cellent opportunity for prospective homemakers to
learn the workings of an efficient kitchen. In cook¬
ing courses students learned the rudiments of
cooking, etiquette, and table setting.

Sewing classes offered insight into clothesmak-
ing. Girls studied fabric, styling, and the mechanics
of sewing.

Art students developed their imaginations and
artistic skills while using the equipment in the art
room. During art class, each student was allowed to
follow his natural creative inclinations. While many
students preferred drawing and painting, some
made pottery and fired it in the kiln.

Wood-working artists learned the use of the

The secondary schools, nationwide, scholastic,
honorary group, comparable to the collegiate Phi
Beta Kappa, is the National Honor Society. Ad¬
mission requires that the entering student be in the
upper third of his class, and be of substantial moral
and scholastic character. The eligible Juniors and
Seniors pledge themselves to infinite enthusiasm for
scholarship, promotion of leadership, rendition of
service, and development of character. To these
ends, the Honor Society is dedicated; and sponsored
by Miss Veva McAtee, these goals are fostered in
each of its faculty-elected members.

To honor the scholastically adequate but journal¬
istically inclined student, Clark High School has
established its chapter of the Quill and Scroll.
Membership is achieved by any student whose con¬
tributions to the POWDER HORN or PIONEER
NEWS have showed initiative and development in
the field of journalism.

Points are awarded for participation in debate
tournaments and speech meets. Activities included
in the League’s program are debating, oratory,
extemporaneous speaking, poetry and dramatic
reading, radio announcing, and discussion. This
year’s debate topics concerned the United States’
trade relations with the free world. Mr. Arthur
Erickson sponsors this group.

National Thespian Troup 1769 is one of the
thousands of secondary-school acting guilds in the
United States. Membership is awarded to talented

The axis of the Clark student government is the
Student Council. As a group representative of each
Clarkite, the Council is under the sponsorship of
Mr. Buell. The officers, a product of a newly adapted
election procedure, have successfully generated a
general enthusiasm so necessary for an effective
administration. A vital organ of the administration
is the Council cabinet. It has been said that the
prominence of this body lies in the names of its
members. This reasoning proved erroneous as the
cabinet has evidenced itself a powerful and con¬
structive cog in the wheel of student government.
The representatives, the officers, and the cabinet
have molded to form that necessary link between
the student body and the faculty.

This link has achieved such privileges and serv¬
ices as the installation of vending machines, provi¬
sion for student directories, sponsorship of the ma¬
gazine drive, and renovation of the intramural
sports program. Such proposals have resounded on
the Council floor, evolving to fit the best interest
and enjoyment of all.

Every two weeks, two student council members are selected
to put up and take down the American flag. Marty Kessler
and Sandy Psikula are displaying their patriotism and lul-

Under the direction of Mr. Darell Church, the
Vocal Music Department underwent some radical
changes this year. With the new gym class pro¬
gram, the Girls’ Choruses were able to meet three
times a week instead of only two times a week. For
the second semester, a fifth hour Girls’ Choir was
formed. The Madrigal Group was smaller and more
selective this year. Christmas caroling and perform¬
ing for community organizations were two of the
many activities on this groups agenda. In February
the Madrigals traveled to compete in the Gary Lew
Wallace district ensemble contest.

The new Concert Choir consisted of students
selected from all the other vocal music organizations
in the department. In the Winter Concert this
group sang selections from Handel’s Messiah. Fea¬
tured soloists in the concert were Roscoe Grigson,
Ron Burk, and Mary Jane Schwab.

During the Christmas season the A Capella
Choir, Concert Choir, Madrigal Group, and Junior
High choruses presented a Christmas assembly for
the entire student body. The Vocal Music Depart¬
ment enjoyed a good year under the new director.

Orchestra Invests in Chic, New Uniforms

Sandy Fauth prepares Bev Smith and Ken Holman for an¬
other orchestra rehearsal. She passes their folio to them.

For the first time in Clark’s history the orchestra
had uniforms. Miss Thelma Wilcox, the orchestra
director, Miss Jeani Knapp, the drama coach, and
many parents cooperated in creating the outfits.
The girls’ ensembles consisted of floor length, black
taffeta skirts, white blouses, and bright red cum-
berbunds. The boys wore black slacks, white shirts,
and red cumberbunds. In the Winter Concert the
orchestra made its first striking appearance wear¬
ing their new outfits.

The group made tremendous progress this year.
It accompanied the Concert Choir in the Messiah
for the Winter Concert. The orchestra’s repetoire
consisted of such numbers as “Sine Nomine” by
Ralph V. Williams, “The Great Gate of Kiev” by
Moussorgsky, and “Prelude and Fugue” by Handel.
The concert in March and the solo contest in Feb¬
ruary gave students great opportunities to develop
their musicianship.

The Senior Band, under the direction of Mr.
Carlyle J. Snider, began the school year with an out¬
door concert during August. Selections included
“Waggery for Woodwinds,” which featured the
clarinet section, and Music from “West Side Story.”
After school had started, the band presented many
programs of precision marching at home football
games. The band also participated in parades, two
concerts, solo and ensemble contests, pep rallies,
and the Hammond Music Festival.

The pep band, a small ensemble composed mainly
of upper-class musicians, performed at pep rallies
and all home basketball games. It assisted the
cheerleaders and helped boost school spirit and team
morale with its peppy music.

At the Winter Concert in January, the band
played “Bolero” by Ravel, “Finlandia” by Sibelius,
and “Triumphal March” from the movie Quo Vadis.
At the Spring Concert, Mr. Snider presented the
traditional band keys to all the graduating members
of the band. A special gold key was given to the
senior, whom the band members had voted the most
valuable player.

Modern Dance Crows; Booster Club Stuns

In the spring the modem dancers combined with
other sectors of the girls’ physical education depart¬
ment in staging a performance. Techniques of ex¬
ercising, basic movements, and styles of modern
dancing were demonstrated.

The concentration of the group this year was on
the inspiration received from music. Modern danc¬
ing requires a sense of rhythm, limber movements,
and a flowing style. The group hopes to gradually
improve its concepts of modern dancing through
strenuous practicing.

Modern dance membership was open to all high
school girls. New members were chosen on the basis
of their poise, coordination, cooperation, initiative,
and regularity of attendance. The group met for 90
minutes on Tuesday nights. Before working with
music, the girls limbered up with exercises. This
year new exercises were added to challenge the
girls’ endurance. The major part of each rehearsal
was spent in creating original dances. By the end
of the year, the student body could witness the
achievements of the group.

Sharon Gabbert, a member of the Modern Dance group,
demonstrates her dancing skill and agility.

Sounds of “Mighty Proud of It, G. R. C.” and
“Pioneers, Pioneers, Go! Go!” could be heard echo¬
ing from the popular Booster Club. A valuable asset
to the varsity cheerleaders, the Booster Club was
one of the largest and most widely supported organ¬
izations. To instill a sense of sportsmanship in the
avid Clark fans was the prime objective of the
“Boosters.” With enthusiastic supervision of Miss
Jeani Knapp, the “Boosters” strive for a rousing
Clark cheering section. Countless projects have
been designed to boost the morale of the Clark ath¬
letic teams and send them on to victory.

The sale of the ever popular booster button was
the major source of revenue for the club. This but¬
ton was proudly worn in the blue-white cheering
section, which was lauded at home games as well as
games away. The sponsorship of booster caravans to
out of town games, a renovated cheering bloc, and a
proposed card section all enhanced the Clark cheer¬
ing section making it the essence of sportsmanship.

“Stage Crew members must never be seen or
heard.” This requirement was preached during the
first activity period of each month by Miss Jeani
Knapp, the group’s sponsor. For the first time in
years, the membership of Stage Crew was limited.
Ten theatrical-minded, dependable students con¬
stitute the organization. These individuals pulled
curtains, operated lights, and moved scenery for all
assemblies, concerts, and plays. Experienced mem¬
bers were in charge of make-up for plays. Operating
the new speaker system in the auditorium greatly
enhanced the technical ability of the group. Stage
Crew also constructed the float for the Homecoming
Queen and her court. This year the paper-flower
float was composed of five coronets and bore the
slogan, “Midas well face it; we’ve got the touch
down!” The entry won second place.

Fun and excitement characterized only a segment
of the crew’s activities. Sweeping the stage and
cleaning the prop room were responsibilities rarely
considered glamorous. Thus, the unofficial motto
of the group is “Stage Crew will never die, but just
perspire away.”

Wardrobe mistresses Mary Ann Poracky and Marge Wisniew¬
ski check over some costumes to be used in the next play.

Handle Many Chores

Special lighting effects are the specialty of Joel Kaplan.
He is seen here making last minute adjustments on one of
the large spotlights necessary in a theatrical production.

Roger Wetnight is shown as he carefully replaces one of
the overhead lights backstage in the auditorium.

As a member of the stage crew, senior Mark Moynihan is
often called upon to assist during plays and assemblies.
Opening and closing the curtain is just one of the jobs he
may be asked to perform.

Y-Teens Adopt Little Sisters; Hi-Y Pop

Y-Teens is the high school branch of the Young
Women’s Christian Association. Its goals as a serv¬
ice group are to promote friendship between girls
of all races and religions throughout the world.

The Clark Y-Teens, sponsored by Miss Wilcox,
were quite active. Early in the year, each member
chose a little sister at the East Chicago Carmelite
Orphanage for Girls. Each Y-Teen visited her sister,
wrote to her, and most important, remembered her
birthday. A panel discussion sponsored by the Y-
Teens gave Jim Stasny, Tom Allison, Buck Makis,
Greg Terranova, and A1 Berger a chance to com¬
ment on the opposite sex. They frankly aired their
opinions on girls, their dress, conduct, and hair
styles. They also answered the Y-Teens’ questions.

Y-Teens raised money for their activities by sel¬
ling potato chips in March and yearbook covers in
the spring. The money sent two girls to the state¬
wide Summer Y-Teens Conference at Lake Wawasee,
Indiana. Y-Teens contributed to the Booster Club
drive to improve the cheering section, and to the
Hayward Memorial Fund.

Miss Wilcox’s room, these Y-Teeners make plans for one of
the many Y-Teen’s projects—selling potato chips.

Y. This year the Hi-Y was redivided and a fresh¬
man club, sponsored by Mr. Wilkinson, was formed
for the first time. In addition, there is a sophmore,
junior, and senior club sponsored by Mr. Watkins.

The sophomore, junior, senior Hi-Y donated
money from two paper drives, pop sales, and coat
check at school dances to the world service project.

Another project of the sophomore, junior, senior
Hi-Y was the series of daily morning religious serv¬
ices which were held the week before Easter. For
these services, speakers were obtained from various
churches in the surrounding area.

An activity in its second year for Hi-Y is the an¬
nual Hi-Y city basketball tournament. This year
the Clark club sponsored this activity. The tourna¬
ment was held in the Clark gym and six teams
from three of the Hammond high schools partici¬
pated in the sometimes wild competition.

One of the many service projects of the Junior Red Cross
is filling gift boxes to be sent overseas. Louise Clark and
Jim Smolar are preparing Clark’s boxes for shipment.

George Rogers Clark’s Red Cross, which was
formerly called the Junior Red Cross, completed
several major projects this year. The organization
sent a large gift chest filled with educational and
recreational articles to a high school overseas. Indi¬
viduals in foreign countries received special gift
boxes during the holiday season. The third project
consisted of sending gifts and knickknacks to Beatty
Memorial Hospital and a local veterans’ hospital.

The homerooms played an essential role in sup¬
plying canned food and warm clothing for the group
to distribute. Thirteen boxes of this food and cloth¬
ing were given to underprivileged children in the
Calumet Region. The Red Cross also donated two
Christmas gifts to the Good Cheer Project.

In the spring, Janet Duncan and Louise Clark
organized a special charity project. The results of
this humanitarian effort were quite successful. The
Veterans’ Project, under the leadership of John
Buchner and Leonard Shifflett, also verified the
group’s slogan, “We believe in service for others.”

Romans Auction Off Members to Bidders

Latin Club activities include freshman initiation, banquet and
Saturnalia preparation, and the infamous Olympic Games.

“Io Saturnalia!” This greeting to Latin students
is as common as “Merry Christmas” is to us. It
means hail Saturn. He was the god which the Rom¬
ans honored in December. During this time of the
year the Latin Club held a Saturnalia party at
which games of original Roman origin are played.

Another activity of the club was the slave auc¬
tion. At this auction, freshman members were put
up for sale to the highest bidder. These freshmen
must list their attributes and flaws to enable the
bidders to pick the one best-suited for the need. The
money from this auction was used as the club’s
chief source of income.

Along with these two events, the monthly meet¬
ings provided a time for members to better acquaint
themselves with Ancient Rome’s culture.

Under the able leadership of sponsor, Mrs. Miller, the Ger¬
man Club members participated in many activities. Activities
of the club included having a Christmas party and singing.

German Club, sponsored by Mrs. R. Miller meets
every third Wednesday during Activity Period.
Members of the German Club strive for greater un¬
derstanding of the Germans and their language.

At a Christmas party for all German I and II
students, the German Club presented the play, “Die
Frohlichsten Weihnachten.” Other activities in¬
cluded making bookmarks with famous German and
American sayings on them, singing German songs,

history of Germany.

The members of the German Club realized the
importance of talking a language frequently while
mastering it. The German Club also aided the lan¬
guage department by buying new language records.

Spanish Life Explained

Winning first place in the Homecoming Float
competition began a year full of activities for mem¬
bers of the Spanish Club. Their theme was “We’re
no fan of Tech’s,” and effort was put forth by all.

Presiding over their monthly meetings was Jan
Michalak, president. Assisting her in duties were
Barbara Vaughan, vice-president; Tim Simko, secre¬
tary; and Bob Kovacich, treasurer. Mrs. Judith
Stoelting is club sponsor.

At the meetings, Spanish customs and ways of
life are introduced, explained, and discussed. They
also venture into the world of Spanish music, sing¬
ing it to better acquaint themselves with the use of
the Spanish language.

Spanish Club members gather around Mrs. Stoelting as she
strums a gay Spanish tune for them to dance. Singing and
dancing are a couple of the favorite club activities.

Frenchmen Come to Clark; Literary Club

The formation of the French Club immediately
followed the addition of French to the list of aca¬
demic subjects taught at Clark. The French Club
enables students of French to delve deeply into the
language and customs of France. The French Club
adds to the knowledge of the students in their daily
French classes.

During the club meetings, members of the French
Club sang many songs like Allouette and Sur Le
Pont d’Avignon. Students also constructed book¬
marks with French proverbs on them. To earn
money, the French Club sponsored a raffle in Feb¬
ruary. Prizes included a portable phonograph, stuf¬
fed animal, and a free night of bowling. The last
activity of the French Club was a Gallic dance.

Participating in one of the many activities of the French
Club are these members studying French customs, Cheri
Ihnat, Kathy Wild, and Mike Janek. In the first year of
organization, the club did many things.

Discusses Folk Music

Members of the Literary Club enjoyed reading
plays and poetry, telling stories from folklore, and
listening to folk music. This year the group’s agenda
included a trip to Chicago to see a play, a visit to
the Chicago Public Library, and a tour of the Chica¬
go Historical Society. A gala Christmas party was
the height of the year’s activities.

Students who are interested in creative writing
had an opporunity to share their original work and
receive assistance in the fine points of style and
grammar. Practicing oral interpretations was an¬
other project of the group. By means of a tape re¬
corder, these interpretations were reviewed and
critically analyzed. Students studied the inflections
of their voices in order to improve pronunciation.

The Literary Club is sponsored by Miss Carolyn
Lambert, a high school English teacher. Twenty-
three students interested in the humanities compose
the organization. Barbara Reid and Paul Nickel
were president and secretary-treasurer, respectively.

Some of the members of the Literary Club gather around
Miss Lambert’s newly installed book shelf. The shelf is
widely used by the club members for their research.

Photo Club Provides Top Service; A.V.O.

Membership in the Photography Club was treas¬
ured by all its members, for Mr. Erickson hand-pics
its members. The club gave the boys a better under¬
standing of the use of their cameras, and introduc¬
ing new methods to aid in better picture taking.

Their activity never ceased. Whether it was a
picture to take for the Powder Horn, or a special
picture for an edition of the Pioneer News, the boys,
headed by chief photographer Brant Olds, were
snapping the shutter. Gym coaches often requested
pictures of the outstanding athletes, while the boys
automatically cover the varsity competition. Clubs
may request their service to take pictures at any
special functions or events.

The Dark Room, in 223, served as the hive of
their activity. Here the boys spent hours developing
their own pictures. They could enlarge a print ten
times, or make it half as big. They made one pic¬
ture from two prints by using cutouts. With the
addition of a new print dryer, the club had a more
efficient way of producing better prints faster.
Clark shutterbugs now have a medium to improve
and share their hobby.

Juniors, Stanley Kalwinski and Terry Tomko, members of
Clark’s snappy Photography Club prepare to dry some glossy
prints in the dryer. These prints are to be used in the year¬
book.

Purchase of a new arc projector and electric
screen for the auditorium highlighted the year’s
activities for the Audio-Visual Operators’ Club. The
club, under the direction of Mr. Paul Wilkinson,
also obtained a new public address system for the
auditorium and a new amplifier for the gym. The
A. V. 0. members helped teachers supplement class¬
room work by the use of movie, slide, and filmstrip
projectors. Other A. V. 0. equipment includes tape
recorders, opaque projectors, and microphones.
A. V. 0. boys ran the G. R. C. public address system
and provided music for the dances held during the
school year in the gym.

The sixty members of the club were led by Dan
Dziadosz, president; Wayne Chovan, vice-president;
Leszek Potapowicz, secretary; and Ron Eberle,
treasurer. Recreational activities of the club includ¬
ed a basketball party during Christmas vacation
and softball games during the spring meetings. The
club obtained its revenue from the fruit machine in
the lunch room. A. V. O. meetings were held during
Wednesday’s activity period. The beginning mem¬
bers of the club met on the second Wednesday.

Nurses Donate to Mental Health; Forum

Sharon Gabbert, Diane Lohrmann, Linda Crozier, and Virginia Sroka, aid the school nurse. The girls
spend one period each day in the nurse’s office learning health techniques and doing clerical work.

The Nurses’ Club was composed of high school
students approved by their homeroom teachers, and
by Mrs. Miller, the club’s sponsor. The purpose of
Nurses’ Club was to acquaint students with medical
institutions. Students were given interviews to de¬
termine whether or not they were qualified to enter
a career of nursing. Personality and intelligence
were prime factors in determining a girl’s aptitude.

This year the club had 155 members. Because of
this increased membership, Mrs. Snider, the English
teacher, was appointed co-sponsor. Mrs. Miller and
Mrs. Snider selected the year’s program and tried
to channel the girls into the right career.

During the first semester the meetings featured
films on the history of nursing and a speaker from
the Lake County Cancer Society. During the
Thanksgiving holidays, 35 girls visited a local hospi¬
tal. The program for the second semester included
a film on Project Hope, and speakers from the Lake
County Heart Association, Wesley Memorial Hospi¬
tal, the Health and Hospital Corporation of Marion
County, and the Hammond Health Department.

The group purchased the series of films about
the history of nursing and a tooth-and-brush model
for health instructions.

Hosts SAC Speaker

The Forum Club is the newest activity at Clark.
Juniors and seniors, under the guidance of Mr.
Heslin and Mr. Charlet, explore social studies. The
objectives of the Forum Club are to interest and to
inform students about current affairs.

Activities of the Forum Club include lectures,
movies, and field trips. A representative of the
Strategic Air Command was engaged to present a
lecture and to show a movie dealing with air de¬
fense. A member of the Peace Corps explained the
foreign policy of the New Frontier. A tour conduct¬
ed by the Calumet Harbor Authority informed stu¬
dents about the assets of the Calumet area. The
largest venture was a trip to Springfield, Illinois.
Students explored Lincoln’s home and tomb and the
Illinois State Capitol Building.

Forum Club president, Marty Kessler conducts a monthly
meeting. An interesting program is given monthly for its
members.

The Future Teachers of America Club, sponsored
by Miss McCampbell, encourages students to enter
the teaching profession. At the monthly meetings,
speakers informed students about college life and
job opportunities. Each student teacher at Clark
was allotted one meeting to express his opinions
about teaching. Some members of F.T.A. assisted
teaching in the elementary grades.

F. T. A. members served refreshments at P.T.A.
meetings and operate check rooms at various school
activities. At the end of each year the seniors are
rewarded for their efforts at an honor banquet.

The Future Secretaries Club is organized for the
girls preparing for secretarial careers. Through
the many club activities the girls achieve a more
complete understanding of the responsibilities they
will hold as secretaries of tomorrow.

During the meetings held every fourth Wednes¬
day, speakers lectured the girls about the business
world. Representatives from industry demonstrated
machinery, stressed efficiency, good grooming and
cooperation. Alumnae who had entered the business
world returned to Clark and informed the girls
about job opportunities.

Library, Biology Clubs Travel and Learn

A get-together at the beginning of the year began
the numerous activities of the Library Club. Some
of the other interesting activities included decorat¬
ing the library’s Christmas tree, planning a Christ¬
mas party, conducting a fund-raising drive, enjoy¬
ing the annual picnic, and traveling to the John
Crerar Library at the Illinois Institute of Tech¬
nology in Chicago.

All members must earn above-average grades and
show the willingness to work hard. Devoting hours
each day to the care of books and magazines was
the major responsibility of a Library Club member.

Biology Club, under the leadership of Mr. Edward
Powell, consisted of thirty scientific-minded Clark-
ites. Their activities included trips to the Indiana
Dunes State Park, near Chesterton, and Chicago’s
Brookfield Zoo.

In these excursions the local fauna and flora
were extensively analyzed. Members were expected
to keep up with modern scientific advances by read¬
ing and conducting experimental research. Soil
tests and respiration tests greatly increased the
scientific knowledge of the students.

Pioneer News Completes Thirtieth Year;

As one passed the school late on a Thursday
night, he may see a light from room 223. It was not
the janitors cleaning up or even prowlers, but the
alert, wide-awake staff of the Pioneer News. Since
the service of the P.N. must continue in spite of
torn stencils or late deadlines, often these budding
young journalists were late in getting through.

To produce the Pioneer Neivs much thought, plan¬
ning, and man power were needed. The 1962-1963
Pioneer Neivs was again noted by special editions.
These were the opening edition. Homecoming, and
Christmas editions. There were also 31 other fine
issues in this the Pioneer News’ thirtieth year of
publication.

A new innovation of this year’s paper was the
Christmas coloring book. This was prepared as a
special project in Mrs. Gates’ senior composition
class. These same classes also wrote poetry for the
Christmas edition.

Sponsor, Mr. George Muir gave much-needed
advice to the staff and editor, Gary Gardner com¬
bined to give G.R.C. a sterling example of top-notch
journalism.

Feature Editor Mary Steliga and Sports Editor Ron Burk
of the Pioneer News confer on their weekly assignments.

Accurately documenting the school year 1962-
1963 was the prime objective of the Powder Horn
staff. Work started in the spring of 1962 when
editor Jean Tolchinsky chose her staff and started
preparing them for their jobs. During the summer
at the Indiana High School Journalism Institute,
the yearbook theme was decided on and the dummy
was prepared. In August senior portraits were
snapped at the Dressier Studio.

After school had started, the different com¬
mittees swung into action. Taking pictures, writing,
soliciting adds, holding subscription drives, and typ¬
ing composed the major work. Numerous consulta¬
tions between Mr. Muir and staff members smooth¬
ed out the endless difficulties. Everyone hurried
to meet the dreaded deadlines.

Over a year of planning and hard work produced
the 1963 Powder Horn. At the Senior Banquet and
the Signature Swing in June, the anxious students
received their long-awaited yearbooks.

in the best possible manner.

Punting or passing, shooting or dribbling, batting
or pitching . . . whichever it may be, one can be assured
a Clark athlete has tried it. Through interschool
and intraschool competition Clark’s sportsmen
build themselves physically and mentally. Fair play
and good sportsmanship are the key qualities for which
Clarkites strive. By these means they are in the process
of reaching their competitive peak of success.

Manage 5-2 Record

The Clark tennis team placed third in Western
Division competition this year by attaining a record
of five wins and two losses.

The netmen won their first match 4-1 against
East Chicago Washington. In their second match
of the season against Hammond Tech, the Pioneers
were defeated 1-4. The racketmen went on to win
three matches in succession. Horace Mann was de¬
feated by Clark 3-2. The Pioneer team then defeat¬
ed Lew Wallace 4-1. Clark was also victorious over
Gary Tolleston by the score 4-1.

In Clark’s next match the racketmen suffered
their second loss of the season. Playing host to
Hammond High, the Conference champions, Clark
was shutout 0-5. The Pioneers came back to win
their last conference match of the season by de¬
feating East Chicago Roosevelt 4-1.

During the season two non-conference matches
were held with Gary Roosevelt. Only underclass¬
men participated in these matches. Clark won the
first match 5-0 and won the second one 3-2.

Because of graduation, four lettermen will be
lost from this year’s team. They are Ron Burk,
Mark Duray, Cliff Liehe, and Mark Trombley. Den
Burk, Tom Snider, and Charles Wolf will be re¬
turning lettermen for next year’s team.

Willowy Ron Burk puts forth a superior effort in reaching
for a high and difficult shot.

Inspired Pioneers Weaken Roosevelt Myth

Sophomore fullback Paul Miskus is anything but happy as
he’s buried by Froebel’s line. Clark lost this one, 20-12.

Clark’s 1962 football team fought through a
heavy nine game schedule with a final 2-5-2 record.
Three disappointing losses, Morton 33-6, Froebel 20-
12, and Tech 18-6, combined with a 32-0 loss to
Indiana’s state championship team Hammond High
for the Pioneer’s four one-sided defeats.

The Pioneer’s greatest moment came in the sec¬
ond ball game of the season. Clark clawed and
hustled its way to a 0-0 tie with powerful E. C.
Roosevelt. Harnessing the best of their defensive
strength, Clark stalled the single-wing power of
the Rough Riders. Following Roosevelt, Washington
clipped Clark 13-0. Once more the defensive line
gave a strong performance. Clark faltered again
later in the season as they tied Highland 0-0.

Late in the schedule Gavit became the Pioneers
first victim 7-0. It was a costly victory however
as guard A1 Lewandowski suffered a broken foot.
The following week, Clark ended the season with a
historic victory over cross-town foe Whiting. When
Jack Deshincoe took Bill Gulvas’ pass across the
goal line, it marked the first time either team had
been shut out two years in succession as Clark won
7-0. The Pioneers closed out their 1962 season on a
winning note and looked forward to better times.

Clark’s lesser lights, the freshmen, glowed for
only one victory and a tie in an otherwise dark sea¬
son. The Homesteaders gained a 6-6 tie with Ham¬
mond Tech on the merits of Phil Dedinsky’s lone
touchdown. Tom Strbjak contributed the winning
score as Clark won its next game 7-0 at Whiting’s
expense.

The rest of the season brought little to applaud.
After falling to Gavit 25-0, powerful Hammond
High shelled the Homesteaders 42-0. Morton dealt
Clark its final defeat in grand fashion as the hap¬
less Homesteaders stumbled to a 45-0 loss.

Clark’s youngest Pioneers finished the season
1-1-3 with a determination to resolve this year’s
inexperience at next year’s varsity level.

Clark’s B-Squad football team, despite a rather
poor record, showed the promise important to fu¬
ture success. After an opening 20-0 loss to Morton,
they bounced back for a 6-6 tie with Hammond Tech.

The consistently improving Settlers lost their
next contest to East Chicago Roosevelt 7-0. Clark’s
defense dominated the game, however, and forced
E. C. R. into numerous and glaring mistakes.

The Settlers concluded their 1963 campaign as
they dropped a close one 14-12 to Hammond High.
The Clark outfit led at the half 12-0 as junior Har¬
vey Crouch rallied the Settler offense for two
scores. Clark tired in the second half and yielded
a pair of touchdowns and the game to the Wild-
kittens. The Settlers’ final record read 0-3-1.

respectively. The harriers could not, however, find
the formula to keep up this pace throughout the
rest of the sometime snowy and rainy season.

Even though the harriers had a losing season,
they look forward to a better season next year
with Tom Milanowski being the only loss.

Although lacking in wins, the harriers did not
lack in effort this year. Bob Hatczel brought the
Tri-City championship to Clark along with a rec¬
ord-breaking time of 8:06 for the mile and five-
eighths course. The harriers also soundly defeated
cross-town rival Whiting on three occasions.

Because of these achievements and the fact that
a veteran team will be returning, the cross-country
team hopes for a better showing next year.

Bob Hatczel and Tom Milanowski were the “take-charge”
men for coach Shields’ cross country team. Both of them
are shown here practicing at Forsythe Park.

Clark’s grapplers opened their season with a
sound defeat at Lowell. This set the pace for a
dismal 2-10 season record. The matmen followed
their first loss with another one at T. F. South.
In this match they garnered only one individual
victory and lost. Some improvement was seen when
the Clark team lost a close contest to Highland.

Clark finally met with success on the wrestling
mat when the grapplers trounced Lew Wallace in
a sparkling victory. After this feat the Pioneer
team dropped six consecutive dual meets. Clark was
defeated by Tech, Tolleston, state champion Ham¬
mond High, Valpo, E. C. Roosevelt, and Crown
Point. The second victory of the season for the
grapplers came when they defeated E. C. Washing¬
ton. The season ended with a loss to Morton.

In the Western Division Tourney the Clark team
was only able to place seventh. However, Stephen
Leland and Danny Galatzer each placed second. The
wrestlers fared better at the Sectional Tournament
by placing fifth with two individual seconds, a
third, and three fourths. Hopes for a more re¬
spectable record next season are based on eight
returning lettermen.

Win Two in Sectionals

Clark shook off a mid-season slump and finished
the 1962-63 basketball season with a record of 13
wins and 10 losses. Two early victories by a total
margin of two points depleted the Pioneer scoring
punch as they managed only 10 field goals during a
53-28 loss to Sounth Bend Washington.

The Pioneers made their first venture of the
season in the Western Division a wild success as
they slammed highly touted Hammond High, 60-42.
A glove-like defense throttled the Wildcats while
Clark raced to an early lead in the conference.

Prior to the holiday season, the courtmen won
58-54 at E. C. Roosevelt, then fell to Tolleston
69-44 and South Bend St. Joseph’s 63-60. In the
Holiday Tourney Clark exhibited top-flight scoring
balance and nipped Bishop Noll 63-62. In this con¬
test Whiting defeated the Pioneers 44-43 in the final.

The new year saw Clark shelling Lew Wallace,
86-63. Clark then dropped three games in a row,
losing 54-49 to Whiting, 61-47 to Washington, and
75-63 to Valpo. Later in the season the Pioneers
laid Tech and Horace Mann to rest by wide margins.
After whipping Gavit 73-42, Morton and Griffith
stopped Clark in successive outings. Emerson and
Froebel breathed their last as the Pioneers ended
their season with two decisive victories.

For the third time in as many years, Clark won
their way to the semi-finals of the Sectional but
dropped the afternoon contest. With the sectionals
behind them, Clark bases next season’s hopes on a
full complement of lettermen at all positions.

B-Team, Frosh Cain Victories over Whiting

This year the Freshman team posted a 3-12 rec¬
ord. The first five games of the season were lost
to Valparaiso, Morton, T. F. North, E. C. Roosevelt,
and Hammond High respectively.

The Homesteaders gained their first victory over
Morton, 41-39. They were then defeated by Tech,
Whiting, Gavit, and E. C. Washington, but they
won against Calumet Township, 39-38.

In the city tournament the Frosh were eliminated
by Gavit, 53-33. They were then again defeated by
E. C. Roosevelt, 46-44. In their second game with
Whiting the Frosh reversed the score of their first
encounter and won 30-28. They ended the season
with a 72-45 loss to T. F. North.

The B-Squad team started its season poorly by
losing to South Bend Riley, South Bend Washing¬
ton, Hammond High, E. C. Roosevelt, Tolleston, and
South Bend St. Joseph respectively. In the Holiday
Tourney at Tech the Settlers first defeated Whiting
and then E. C. Roosevelt, but finally lost to Tech.

After starting the new year with wins over Lew
Wallace, 50-26, and Whiting, 39-36, the Settlers
were defeated by E. C. Washington, Valpo, Tech,
and Gavit. They came back to gain a victory over
Morton with a score of 52-48. In the Michigan City
Tourney the B-Squad lost out to Michigan City,
43-35, and South Bend St. Joseph, 39-37, giving
them a 5-13 record for the 1962-63 basketball season.

Victories

Clark golfers get valuable practice at Tod Park. Den Burk
(top) and Jim Eberle (bottom) improve their techniques as
their teammates watch their attempts.

Clark’s golf team, coached by Mr. Ray Buell,
ended its season with a conference record of 5
wins and 11 losses. This record earned the turfmen
the sixth place spot in the Western Division.

In conference play, the turfmen were victorious
over Horace Mann, Gary Emerson, and Hammond
Tech. The Pioneers were victorious over E. C.
Roosevelt twice during the season.

Highlighting the season play were two tourneys;
the Lake Hills Invitational, and the Sectionals.
In the Lake Hills Invitational, the four top players
on the team shot a total of 375 to place 16 out of
23 teams. Later in Sectional play, the Pioneer divot-
makers shot 377 to place 17 out of 24 teams.

The Pioneers had only one senior on the team
this year, so the returning players should improve
on last year’s record because of the experience
gained in a year of underclass varsity play.

This year there will be three returning lettermen.
These lettermen are: Jim Eberle, Ken Kantowski,
and Den Burk. Also earning letters this year were
Jack Taylor, who was the lone graduating senior
on the team, and Greg Gross.

Speed merchants T. Allison, J. Kocsis, H. LaBrant, and H. Crouch sparked Clark’s mile-relay team to an unusually suc¬
cessful spring season.

13 Lettermen Return

Clark’s track team, led by thirteen underclass¬
men, opened the 1962 season with the city indoor
meet at the University of Chicago Fieldhouse.
The Pioneers managed 221/2 points, which was good
enough for third place. High point of the meet
was sophomore Harvey Crouch, who captured first
in the 440-yard dash with a time of 54.9 seconds.
A week later the Pioneers and Coach Steve Stavros
returned to the U. of C. Fieldhouse for the Con¬
ference Indoor. The cindermen fared well.

Clark played host to Valparaiso in the first dual
meet of the year. The Vikings crushed the Clark
Hopefuls 74-34. The thinclads regained their con¬
fidence by placing first in every event and 1-2 in
six events against rival Whiting. The final tally
read 92-16 in favor of Clark. But the glory was
short-lived. Morton bombed the Pioneers 87-20.

Coach Stavros found T. F. North more to his
liking as he led the cindermen to a 63-46 victory.
Continuing the streak, Clark soared to a 72-36 win
over the Trojans of Highland.

After competing in the Hammond Relays, the

trackmen journeyed to Tech for a triangular meet
with the Tigers and Gary Lew Wallace. In conten¬
tion but not in the money, the thinclads garnered
501/2 points for second place. Clark next competed
in the relays at Chesterton. Jack Deschincoe cap¬
tured first in the shot put with a heave of 48’.

Returning home, the Pioneers welcomed Bishop
Noll to Clark Field for a dual meet. The cindermen
found the visitors stubborn but not unbeatable. The
final score card pegged Clark the victor, 58-51.
Closing out the season the track team ventured to
LaPorte for the latter’s Invitational. Clark found
the competition much too tough. Clark finished the
season at the Hammond City Outdoor Meet.

While lettering thirteen underclassmen, Coach
Steve Stavros lost only three to graduation. Fresh¬
man Bob Hatczel set the city freshmen mile record,
and junior Jack Deschincoe improved steadily. The
mile relay team came within five seconds of break¬
ing the school record. With such prospects as these
and with continued hard work, the outlook for
1963 can be nothing but bright.

Pioneers Third in Western Division Race

Behind the capable leadership of Emerson Aid-
rich, the hardballers of G.R.C. played even .500
baseball while capturing third place in the Western
Division standings. Adding non-conference games,
stickmen finished with an 8 and 7 record.

The stickmen collected 12 hits in the season’s
opener to dump Highland by a score of 11-2. The
team then traveled to Lowell where they picked up
a 13-0 victory by slamming out an identical total
of hits. The team’s home debut was spoiled by a
scrappy Governor squad (8-1), and Crown Point’s
Bulldogs showed a balanced attack while slipping
by the stickmen 6-4. The last non-conference game
was a slim 4-3 victory over Calumet Twp., with
the winning run crossing the plate in the bottom
half of the seventh.

Jeff Render pitched a brilliant two-hitter in the
team’s first Western Division game, which the stick¬
men won 2-0 over Whiting. The hardballers w-ere
once again defeated, this time by E. C. Roosevelt.
In this game the team took a 4-3 lead, only to lose
by a 5-4 score. Recovering, the diamondmen stopped

E. C. Washington 14-1 and Tech 13-2. In the two
games the Pioneers’ hit total was 20, and the pitch¬
ers yielded only a scanty eight hits. Rain postponed
a few games, both conference and non-conference,
but the baseballers quickly returned to action. First-
round play was ended with a 5-4 defeat at the hands
of Hammond High.

The second-round opener found the hardballers
absorbing their worst defeat of the season, (7-2)
from a powerful E. C. Roosevelt team. The stick¬
men beat a much-improved Whiting team by a score
of 8-7. This game was a 13-inning marathon, and
ended in an Oiler strike-out with men on base. The
following week it was a differentrstory as the Wild¬
cats held the team to two hits and no runs. The
hardballers beat Tech, but ended the season by los¬
ing to E. C. Washington a close score of 6-5.

Chuck Freeland led all regulars with a .315 aver¬
age. He also banged out 12 hits and scored 12
runs, enough to capture first in both departments.
In the R.B.I.’s category, Jeff Render led with 9
for the season.

Junior Greg Terranova holds the runner with a quick glance

of this kind helped Clark to a winning season.

Physical Education Program Diversifies

Tarzan, Joe Vargo, savagely clings to the rope
tempts to climb to the top during Mr. Franklin’s

as he at-
gym class.

Both males and females at Clark took part in
the physical education program, of which four se¬
mesters were required of all students. The program
was organized in such a way as to provide a variety
of activities in which the students could participate.

Girls, under the direction of Miss Doris Myers
and Miss Jackie Bruno, took part in many activities.
They learned poise, good sportmanship, and the
skills of athletics. They participated in sports such
as basketball, volleyball, and baseball. Even the
trampoline was used by the girls for a short period
of time to keep physically fit.

Boys’ gym classes, under the instruction of Coach
Joe Franklin, also included varied activities. Practic¬
ing calisthenics was an important, although hardly
popular, method of getting the boys in shape. The
boys took part in football, basketball, and baseball
during the appropriate seasons. Emphasis was also
placed on certain carry-over sports which could be
played later on in life. Instruction was given in
sports such as bowling, golf, and fishing, and even
trap shooting and hunting. During free time in
gym classes the boys could climb the rope, walk
the ladder, do chins on the chinning bar, or skip
rope in order to build up their stamina.

Mihalo Directs Tumblers in Second Year

The Tumbling Club, under the leadership of Joe
Franklin, entered its second year as an organized
club. George Mihalo was elected president. Serving
with him were Warren Prickett, vice-president, and
Bob Seth, secretary-treasurer.

It has long been the wish of Coach Franklin
that a club such as this could be organized. He feels
that a boy with gymnastic ability should be given
the chance to develop this ability. He also hopes
that one day we will have much of the gymnastic
equipment that we now lack.

The Tumbling Club was formed for boys not out
for athletics and no longer taking gym. The boys
meet on each Wednesday to work and practice for
the tumbling meets that are scheduled during the
year. On these days the boys work on new stunts
and routines, while also polishing the basic funda¬
mentals that must be learned. During the year
tumbling meets are held with the different high
schools in the city. In the spring the boys highlight
the year with a picnic at Wicker Park.

Girls Stress Fitness and

Interested G.A.C. bowlers discuss the rules and procedures
for their yearly tournament at Parkview Bowling Lanes.

The three busdrivers will agree that “Ice Cream
for G.A.C.” was an appropriate title for the annual
G.A.C. picnic, and the G.A.C.ers sang their way to
and from Marquette Park in Gary. During the
picnic, the girls took part in relays, volleyball, pie¬
eating and treasure hunt contests, and even a few
games of touch football.

G.A.C. sweaters seemed to have been a real in¬
centive this year. Participation in the four sports
was higher than ever before. While participating
in softball, swimming, bowling, and basketball, the
girls earned points towards their letters. A volley¬
ball tourney was also added.

At the Mother-Daughter Banquet, held at the
end of the year, awards are presented, new mem¬
bers are initiated, and letters, monograms or num¬
erals are presented to those girls with the required
amount of points. Girls acquiring one-hundred fifty
points are eligible to receive their sweaters with
the numeral. Two-hundred fifty points are required
to receive the monogram and three-hundred points
are required to receive the letter.

Under the sponsorship of Miss Doris Myers, the
Girls’ Athletic Club has increased considerably the
last few years. Keeping its members fit, trim, and
healthy is the main goal of G.A.C.

Activities Increase under

C-Club Plan

With the able leadership from co-sponsors, Mr.
Ed Shields and Mr. Richard Daugherty, plus high-
spirited willingness to co-operate, this year’s C-Club
established itself as one of the most active or-
ganziations in our school. Boys automatically be¬
come a member of C-Club after they earn a major
letter on the interschool competition basis.

Some of the club’s major undertakings were
selling programs at all home football games and
selling popcorn at various home athletic events.
A letterman jacket was presented to a sick letter
holder who has been confined to bed for the past
year. An annual C-Club dance in the latter part of
the year and two parties for club members rounded
out the social events for the boys. Highlighting
all was the annual banquet at which time awards
for the year were presented.

Most of the money accumulated during the year
was spent to procure trophies and other rewards for
deserving members. What remained was stored
in the treasury for future use.

As leaders in the school, C-Club members dis¬
play sportsmanship, school spirit, and above all
gentlemanly attitude in all their activities.

DeShincoe present bed-ridden Marty Gajdos with his jacket.

Laughing or crying, walking or running, playing or
working, eating or sleeping . . . which ever it may be, one
can be assured someone at Clark is doing it. While
each person at Clark is an individual, each wants to be
one of the group. Although everybody is searching
for his peak of success, all are trying to reach some goal.
Whether it be teacher or student, one will find this
type of individual at George Rogers Clark.

PEOPLE

The Administration Overcomes Problems

As the principal here at Clark, Mr. Durward D.
Lockey is kept quite busy supervising the activities
of the entire school, dealing with unexpected prob¬
lems, and handling important school business.

Although most of his free time is spent with his
wife and two daughters, Mr. Lockey still finds time
for other interests. He is a past President of the
Hammond Lions Club, and is still very active in
the organization. Mr. Lockey is a member of the
board of the First Methodist Church in Hammond,
and enjoys teaching Sunday school. He is also vice-
president of the City Council of the P.T.A. In the
past he has served as a colonel in the Community
Chest Drive.

His hobbies include all types of sports. He likes
to golf, to bowl with the faculty team, and is
Clark’s Number One booster. Mr. Lockey also en¬
joys gardening, especially raising flowers.

Now in his second year here, Mr. Lockey says
that he likes Clark very much. He commends Clark
students for their friendliness, school spirit, and
fine attitude toward their studies. He advises all
students, that throughout life “When you play, play
hard, and when you work, work hard.”

Principal D. D. Lockey stops a moment during his busy
schedule to catch up on necessary reading. A moment of
peace and quiet is a rare one for our conscientious principal.

Mr. Lockey converses with Dr. Tatum, former principal of
Roosevelt High School following a monthly PTA meeting.

Mr. Lockey and Miss Morrison, Clark’s art teacher, relax
during a well-deserved coffee break.

and Plans for the Future

HAMMOND SCHOOL BOARD—Mrs. Margaret Allen; Dr. Henry Eggers, president; Mr. Leo
Bereolas, treasurer; Mrs. Claire Stern, secretary; Mr. Charles Scott.

Another busy school year has been completed by
the Hammond Board of Education. The board is
made up of trustees elected by the people, and is
headed by Dr. Henry Eggers, president of the five
member group and R. B. Miller, Superintendent of
Hammond Public School System.

The board is responsible for the building of addi¬
tional educational facilities, the purchasing of land

and school equipment, the appointment and transfer
of teachers, and dealing with the various problems
which arise during the school year.

Much of the work done by the board is often not
apparent to the students, but this is not always the
case. Many changes and repairs seen throughout the
building, such as new desks and fluorescent lights,
are the result of work done by the board.

1963 will mark the end of Superintendent R. B.
Miller’s long and dedicated career in education.
Throughout his career, Mr. Miller has worked tire¬
lessly to fulfill his goal, which is “To render an
important service to the youth of America.”

After attending high schools in Illinois and
Missouri, Mr. Miller entered Central Weslyan College
in Warrenton, Missouri. He completed work on his
B.A. degree at the University of Chicago. He did
graduate work at Columbia University where he ob¬
tained his M.A. degree. Mr. Miller has since done
additional graduate work at Indiana University and
the University of Chicago.

In 1915 Mr. Miller started teaching in Watson,
Illinois, after which he taught for a single year at
Whiting High School. From 1922-1926, he taught
at Irving School. This was the first of many posi¬

tions he was to fill in the Hammond school system.
He next served as principal of Franklin Jr. High
School for six years. In 1932 Mr. Miller became
principal at Clark. Throughout his eighteen year
stay here, Mr. Miller was very popular with both
faculty and students. It is said that he could walk
down the hall and call every student by name. In
1950 he became Assistant Superintendent of Schools.
In 1959, he was named the new Superintendent.

Mr. Miller has held many positions and received
many honors in connection with education. He has
also been active in the community as a member of
the American Legion, Masonic Lodge, Lions Club,
and the Chamber of Commerce. He is married and
his son Dr. R. Drew Miller is an Associate Director
of the Mayo Foundation at the famous Mayo
Brothers Clinic.

Sponsors Place Serious Values on Future

Miss Doris Myers and Mr. Arthur
Erickson, sponsors of the senior
class, plan activities for Com¬
mencement and Baccalaureate.

Dear Seniors:

“Too bad that youth is wasted upon young people,” wrote George Bernard Shaw.
However, we don’t believe it has been wasted upon the young people of the Class of 1963!

At times your enthusiasm and energy almost overwhelmed us; you used them with
such conscious responsibility and exciting creativity that open pride was our emotion.

Your presence has made a difference for us. We hope that these bright stars of
youthful purpose will shine through your eyes again and again. We want you to make
a joyous difference for the lives of all of those with whom you share the years ahead.

“Should auld acquaintance be forgot and ne’er brought to mind?” Every year will
bring reunion if we keep our youth, our stars, the pioneering spirit!

Numerous Activities Occupy a Senior's

CLASS OFFICERS: B. Gulvas, v-president; L. Ruf, co¬
treasurer; J. Stasny, president; J. Pietrzak, secretary; P.
Yancich, co-treasurer.

“The pen is mightier than the sword” . . . And senior Dan
Pramuk proves it while putting finishing touches to the
class float, “Roll Thoz Tigers”

We, the class of 1963, formed high ideals and
goals to guide us through our four years at G.R.C.
Our freshman officers were Jim Stasny, president;
Jean Tolchinsky, vice-president; Sue Eaton, secre¬
tary; and Mark Trombley, treasurer. Our sponsors
during our freshman year were Rhoda Kittelsen and
Boyd Scarborough. Our freshman dance, “Hula-la,”
was the most successful dance of the school year.

Our first undertaking as sophomores was the con¬
struction of a class float, “Give ’Em The ’Ole Heave
Ho.” After selecting our class rings, we began work
on the class dance, “Bullwinkle’s Bounce” which
proved to be a huge success as was the dance in
our freshman year.

Our junior year proved to be a challenge to our
talents and capabilities. Mr. Arthur Erickson and
Miss Doris Myers, our new sponsors, helped us to
gain the success for which we strived. To our great
disappointment, our class float, “Knock ’Em Down
with One Blow,” was not considered for competi¬
tion in the Homecoming parade because of late

entry. A few months later we eagerly awaited the
announcement of the cast for our class play, The
Matchmaker. Next on our busy schedule was the
class dance, “Roaring Twenties.” Two chorus lines
composed of junior students performed a Charleston
for the amusement of many spectators. The climax
of our junior year was on June 1, 1962, when we
presented our prom “In the Still of the Night.”

After three years of an uphill struggle, we ar¬
rived on top. We were seniors. We would work on
our last Homecoming, make our final entry in the
parade, choose our queen, perform in the senior
skit, vote for our final officers, and hold our last
dance, “Memories are Made of This . . .” which
was a huge scrapbook commemorating the events of
previous years. Following Baccalaureate and Com¬
mencement many of us will still retain the battle
scars received from working on dances, on floats,
on cars, in committees, on plays, in athletic com¬
petition, and in scholastic competition, but they are
mementos of four wonderful years at Clark.

A Touch of the Orient

JUNIOR OFFICERS: FRONT ROW—D. Stombaugh, treas¬
urer; M. Popovich, secretary; W. Wood, co-president.
BACK ROW—K. Kantowski, co-president.

As Juniors the class of 1964 had a busy and suc¬
cessful year. Their float for Homecoming won a
third place ribbon and they took first place in the
pep assembly yell contest.

Soon to follow in November came their dance
and play. The theme of their dance was Shangra-La.
Exotic Far Eastern decor added to its success. The
play, Cheaper By The Dozen, brought funds to
finance the Prom on May 31, 1963.

SOPHOMORE OFFICERS: FRONT ROW—J. Ruf, treasurer;
M. A. Poracky, v-president; M. A. Murzyn, secretary; Mr.
Preusz, sponsor. BACK ROW—Mr. Meadows, sponsor; A.
Dzurovcik, president.

In their sophomore year the class of 1965 moved
from the frosh “greenie” category.

Their class rings, ordered in October, arrived in
mid-December. The rings worn with pride by the
sophomores were displayed at every chance.

The float, “Beat Those Striped Cats,” bedecked
with beatniks, won fourth place and started the
year off right for the sophomores.

Class of 64, Clark's

FRESHMEN CLASS OFFICERS: Tom Strybjak, president;
Betty Shimala, treasurer; Sandy Psikula, secretary; Jerry
Matlon, v-president.

The greenies began their whirl this year. This
whirl will get faster and faster until such events as
their prom and graduation deem an end.

The choosing of a homecoming attendant was the
first big step for the Frosh. They set a field of
four girls from which the student body selected one,
as in previous years.

Dances, clubs, games, pep-sessions and the rest
of the high school activities welcomed the Freshman
Class to the G.R.C. curriculum.

Buying clothes or buying records, eating pizza or eating
hamburgers, purchasing senior pictures or ordering
class rings, saving money or spending it on gasoline . . .
whichever it may be, one can be assured someone at Clark is
doing it. Spending money and just having fun are the
favorite pastimes of Clarkites. They are faithful patrons to
the yearbook advertisers. In this way, the students help
the Calumet area merchants reach their peak of business success.

As a member of the Sen¬
ior Class, very soon you
will be making a decision
regarding a big step into
the future. Perhaps your
decision will be to go on for fur¬
ther education. Or it may be, you
will be looking for the job of your
choice. In either event, this deci¬
sion will affect and shape your
future life in many ways.

Regardless of what you
decide, we hope that the
Inland Steel Company will
be a part of your future.

Many graduates are currently involved in
successful careers here at the Harbor Works
as part of the nation’s basic steel industry.

Steel mill work today is highly complex,
involving automated production lines which

require people who can be
trained in skilled jobs.
Most of the jobs are in¬
volved directly in the steel-
making process while
others are available in the labora¬
tories or in various departmen¬
tal offices. Regardless of your
interests, excellent opportunities
exist with Inland Steel.

In addition to excellent
paying jobs and an out¬
standing benefit program,
Inland offers a variety of on-
the-job training programs
plus the Purdue-Inland Program. This Program,
offered to a full time employee, provides training in
the areas of steelmaking, mechanics, and electricity.

Plan now to investigate the many opportuni¬
ties for your future with Inland Steel Company.

One more Poivder Horn is completed and so is
one terrific year. Aside from a few traumas, head¬
aches, and near heart attacks the staff has come
through and completed the book. There is no way
to express appreciation to the staff, students, fac¬
ulty, and businessmen who have co-operated to
make this book possible. All I can do is say
“THANKS” to every “cutie” and “bush” who has
helped. There were times when I wasn’t sure if it
could be done. So, I yelled and screamed, and
threatened—and in return got barked at, criticized,
and ignored. But through all this came an experi¬
ence which I know I shall never forget.

To tell the story of Clark would require several
volumes and demand full-time employment. I have
tried to do it in one book, a few hours a day.
If I have accomplished my goal—to tell the 1963
story—I will have “climbed every mountain” which
has been presented to me.
